• Featured list candidates/List of international goals scored by Gigi Riva/archive1

Nominator(s): Dr Salvus 09:31, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

The article has a good lead and is understable, the content is sourced, it has never had any edit war recently. The article is stable (I only made many changes on the last two days to improve it and it's been edited less than 50 times and has existed for 5,5 years). The table is accessible.

*Photo caption needs a full stop  Done "Since debuting for Italy against Hungary on 27 June 1965, Riva has scored 35 goals in 42 appearances" - this tense makes it sound like he is still playing. Suggest "After debuting for Italy against Hungary on 27 June 1965, Riva scored 35 goals in 42 appearances"  Done "His first international goal came on 1 November 1967, in his fourth appearance for his country against Cyprus," - this reads as if it was the fourth time he had played against Cyprus. Suggest "His first international goal came in his fourth appearance for his country on 1 November 1967, against Cyprus,"  Done "where he scored a hat-trick" => "when he scored a hat-trick"  Done "Riva also scored three goals for his national team in a 4–1 win" => "Riva scored a second hat-trick for his national team in a 4–1 win"  Done "He has scored six times against Luxembourg" => "He scored six times against Luxembourg"  Done "On 31 March 1973, he scored against them four goals" => "On 31 March 1973, he scored four goals against them"  Done "He has also scored seven braces" => "He also scored seven braces"  Done You also need to explain/link what a "brace" is, as this is not a common term  Done "Riva has scored one goal at the UEFA European Championship" => "Riva scored one goal at the UEFA European Championship"  Done In the table you link countries every time they appear but only link stadiums and competitions the first time. As the table is sortable you should link everything every time.  Done The table says that he scored a goal at the Cardiff City Stadium in 1968, which is impossible as that stadium was built in 2009  Done Date format in refs 1 and 6 does not match the others  Done Refs 2 and 5 are the same  Done That's what I got -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:19, 28 January 2022 (UTC) @ChrisTheDude:  Done Dr Salvus 12:40, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

* "Gigi Riva is an Italian former association football forward who represented the Italy national football team. He is the country's all-time top goalscorer." - perhaps these two sentences could be merged together?  Done Wikilink hat-trick only on the first mention of the phrase  Done "he scored four goals against them during a 1974 FIFA World Cup qualifier." - clarify that this is Luxembourg  Done "where he scored the opening goal in the replay of the final helping Italy to a 2–0 win." - please state which team Italy beat to win the UEFA Euro 1968 Final 2-0  Done Wikilink the sole mention of West Germany in the prose to the relevant article  Done The image in the lede should ideally have alt text per MOS:ALT and it should be upright per MOS:UPRIGHT  Done "Riva scored one goal at the UEFA European Championship,[2] three goals at the FIFA World Cup, eight goals in friendly matches,[2] nine goals in UEFA European Championship qualifiers[2] and 14 goals in FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[2]" - try not to indicate the reference is verifying all the information in this sentence like this  Done Use the Abbr template on the No. column in the main table to indict to the reader hovering over it that it means number  Done Consider adding an extra column in the main table stating the cap in which the goal(s) were scored as its common with other "List of international goals scored by xxxxxxxx" that are featured lists  Done "Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark, Ost-Berlin, East Germany" - please change the name of the city in bold to its English name (East Berlin)  Done "Stadio Municipale, Torino, Italy" - same issue as above (Turin)  Done All of the references might want to be archived for future-proofing  Done That is all I have for this review MWright96 (talk) 15:29, 31 January 2022 (UTC) @MWright96:  Done Dr Salvus 20:55, 31 January 2022 (UTC))

Comments from TRM

• Instead of "His first international goal came in his fourth appearance for his country on 1 November 1967, against Cyprus, when he scored a hat-trick" maybe " His scored his first international goal in his fourth appearance for his country on 1 November 1967, as part of a hat-trick against Cyprus"?
  • The Rambling Man His scored his first international goal [...] I could be ignorant but isn't "his" a possessive adjective? Did you perhaps mean "He scored his first international goal [...]"? Dr Salvus 17:02, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
    • Yes, typo for me, I meant "He scored his first ...." sorry. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 17:05, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

 Done

• Hat-trick needs to be linked. First time...

 Done

• I would say what tournament/qualifier was for his debut goal.

 Done

• "made his last appearance on" at all levels or just for Italy?

 Done

• "He scored six times in total against Luxembourg, the most he scored" repetitive "he scored".

 Done

• "Riva scored one goal at the UEFA European Championship, three..." this single-sentence paragraph is best suited at the end of the lead and preferably merged, so it's not stand-alone.

 Done

• "first tournament" international.

 Done

• Link "replay".

 Done

• "last appearance on 19 June 1974 in a 1–1 draw against Argentina during the 1974 FIFA World Cup" yet the summary table says in 1974 he only played in two friendlies?

 Done

• "Napoli, " called Naples in English.

 Done

• Competitive apps in that table don't add up to 29 either.

 Done

• Nor goals (25 instead of 27).

 Done

• In fact, check all totals....!

That's all I have. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 16:40, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Goals totals are still incorrect. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 16:54, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man I should've fixed Dr Salvus 17:55, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man, sorry for my being stupid and for my being distracted. Thanks your correcting the thing I hadn't noticed. Given that everything you've said has been fixed would you support the nomination (and promote the page to FL if possibile)? Dr Salvus 19:56, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Support my concerns addressed. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 21:11, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Source review passed. Somehow this list missed getting an accessibility review, so I just went ahead and made the changes myself (there was one column scope missing, and row scopes in the first table). Promoting. --PresN 13:46, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
